Mike, I understand everthing you are saying. I have a couple of examples from my farming past to go along with yours: 1)We used to share a pasture farm with a neighbour that was about 12 miles from home. During the pasture season we would take turns with the neighbor on Sundays to go check the cattle on the pasture farm. When we checked the cattle the neighbour's cattle would always stay a distance away and ours would come right up to us. One Sunday one of the neighbours cows had quills in its nose. No cell phones in those days so we had to drive to his place. I volenteered to go back with him and help remove the quills. As soon as his cattle saw him they came running right up to him. We had always thought his cattle were a bit wild but I guess they were just shy. 2)We have a farm a mile away from the home farm and would winter 2 year old cattle there. We would drive up there in the GM 1/2 ton every morning to feed them. They would always come to the barn when they heard the 1/2 ton coming. One day someone borrowed the 1/2 ton and we drove up with the family car. Well no cattle on their way to the barn. We had to call them. Did they know the sound of that 1/2 ton or was it just a fluke ? JB
